The First Step of Sustainment... Proper Deployment

The two most common hurdles for lean we have seen are getting buy-in during the initial stages of lean and sustainment once lean has formerly been implemented.

To set yourself up for success on the latter issue, proper deployment of lean is the first step.

On April 1st (no fooling!) we will have a one day Executive Leanbelt course on Lean Deployment. Executive coach, Andrew will facilitate the course.
